  1. It seems the Equestria Girls brand is becoming a bit of a big deal these days, even more so that I am starting to lose interest in Friendship is Magic and focusing more on EQG. Is anyone else feeling the same thing? (Just curious)

  2. Whew! Didn't realise I haven't updated the status yet. Good news everypony! My new custom made pony plushies arrived safely last week. Worth every cent!

      How much did they cost?

      The plushies set me back $160, or $80 each plus $250 for the FedEx International Priority shipping costs from the US to Australia. I had the plushies made by one of the plushie makers on deviantART. (not WhiteDove quality, but a really great person by the dA username of SeismicNewton)

      They look great! Thanks for posting the pics.

  3. Call me a traitor if you will, drag me through hot coals if you must but this "hype train" has just completely turned me off from watching the 100th episode. True and honest thoughts here.

      Not turned off in the slightest; I do feel bad for those not wanting to be spoiled though, spoilers *everywhere*.

      I know the feeling... at least in this case I have no knowledge of what's going on with the 100th besides the fact that it's featuring background ponies.

  4. (Sighs)....it finally happened. Got the phone call last night from Caboolture hospital. My grandma has passed away after a brave fight. RIP

      How unfortunate. May she know peace.

      Poor thing. My uncle passed away a few months ago. Still have gotten over it. :'''(

      Sorry to hear that.

  5. Just a quick question, with the first preview material for the 100th episode being released this morning is anyone not looking forward to the episode? I've got a bad feeling about it that's all.

    1. LostSanity

      LostSanity

      Did you watch the teasers? Because from what I saw... I'm ALREADY getting a "BEST EPISODE EVER" feeling from it.

    2. Lux

      Seems fine to me seeing the previews.Keep in mind that it is just a preview so I'd like to see the full episode before passing judgment on it.

      Seems to me you're letting fan paranoia sink in.

  6. Ugh. Still feeling a bit sick after the premiere episodes earlier today. I have had PTSD, anxiety and stress moments during episodes but I never knew one particular scene would nearly make me "lose my dinner.

    1. ShadowWalking18

      ShadowWalking18

      Which scene was that?

    2. rjrgmc28

      rjrgmc28

      The cutie un-marking scene towards the end of part one. It sounds a bit strange, but I couldn't even watch that scene without being sick for some reason. Same thing happened when the Sweetie Belle episode aired last season, except that got my PTSD and anxiety levels up during the dream sequence.

    3. ShadowWalking18

      ShadowWalking18

      That was a wild scene. All those smiling ponies coming out of the shadows was very creepy.

      Though why is there a spell to remove cutie marks? Magic can't make one appear, but takes it away?

  7. After a long trip from the US, my new 4DE Twilight Sparkle plush arrived today! Small in size, soft and cuddly: http://twitpic.com/den3ha

      And it looks like Funco (Who make the really cool show accurate vinyls, will be making blind bag minis.

  8. Derpy Day is currently in full swing here in Australia and although I've been a bit busy today, I've taken some time out to put a little something together in Photoshop. A letter for the event: http://bit.ly/12fh6xM

      And turn signals..NEVER USE THEM! ><

  9. Now while I don't normally get any pony merch based around villains like Discord, I had to make an exception to the rule. Because I couldn't resist picking up this Queen Chrysalis plushie on Etsy a few days ago: http://twitpic.com/e2ec7d

      That's a very well made plushie. It's so cute too.

  10. Another year older, another year wiser. Just turned 27 years old today. Time does sure fly away when you're having fun!

  11. It looks like I may have to prepare for a bushfire emergency in my area soon. Just recieved a text message from the NSW Rural Fire Service: http://twitpic.com/bt6zqj

  12. Not having a good start to the morning. Don't ask me why, but when one country decides to lose control over a situation that could have been avoided and now the potential for war to happen as a consequence of that action is very likely. Things are now really become screwed up in the real world. *end rant*

      This about Ukraine, or some thing I don't know about?

      It is....human nature. We need to be more like Pony. Embrace the pony way of life all other people!

  13. Although small in size, I've been waiting for this Spike plushie to show up from the UK. It turned up today!: http://twitpic.com/bzpsdx

      How much was the plush?

    2. rjrgmc28

      rjrgmc28

      The plush cost me around £30 ($45) plus the Parcelforce GlobalExpress shipping costs (£60/$92). He's a small plush though, coming in at around 17cm (7 inches) in size.

  14. (Sighs)....been going through a very rough patch lately as life in general and my transgender journey has completely been derailed.

      Life always has its rough moments. Don't get discouraged, just keep moving forward. Life is like a hill, going up is tough, but you eventually reach the top and see the horizon.

      Bro, thats deep. But your right. Never give up

  15. Sydneigh is only a few weeks away and I was so close to going to my first brony convention, but my dreams were shattered. (Sighs).....

      Parents won't allow me to go, despite being old enough to make my own choices in life. Had the trip all planned out and everything....

  16. The Equestria Games episode which goes to air today is going to bring back a lot of memories for me. Why do you ask? I was a torchbearer for the Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games relay and I know what Spike is going through as he prepares for his big day. Speaking of which, here is a pic of when I was younger from the day of my relay run: http://twitpic.com/e2ptz3

      That's so cool! :D It's neat that you'll be able so relate so much to the new episode.

  17. My new Amazon purchase arrived today. Some more pony merch to add to the ever growing collection: http://twitpic.com/d33uad

      I've got the Elements of Harmory guide book, and its pretty good, even though 1/2 the book is episode summaries.

    2. tacobob

      tacobob

      They really should have made a separate episode guide.

  18. A week ago today, I finally had the courage to come out as a transgender (Male to Female) to my parents. A week after the announcement, I am looking for rental properties in the area that I work without much success. Nothing going in this area unless its $300+ per week. (Sighs)......

      *thumbs up* Be true to yourself and there you will find inner peace and happiness.

  19. (Sighs)....my 2014 has not gone to plan. I got a knock on the door on Tuesday night from the local police telling me that my grandma has taken a turn for the worst and to make arrangements to say goodbye. I really don't want to travel back up to Queensland a second time, but I'm worried like Rarity at the moment.

      Sorry to hear that, but I do hope you get to visit her...

  20. In the rhyme of Zecora: “A inspirational man, who changed our lives, leaves this world and says his goodbyes. Thank you for everything you have done, because I looked up to you from day one. Thank You, Mr Mandela."

      We shall forever remember Mr. Mandela!! He is such an inspirational man in our world.

  21. (Sighs)....what a day. School holidays can be quite a pain, especially on the buses. But the good thing to come out of today is that the second of the Australian season two DVD's that I ordered arrived at the post office this afternoon: http://twitpic.com/d07av6

      We all have those days. :(

  22. There's nothing like a moment between mother and daughter over a good book. I found this pic from one of my plushie shoots that I did a while back: http://twitpic.com/d371sq

  23. I decided to a tribute video for my grandma tonight as I won't be able to attend the funeral and for one of the final shots, I lit a candle and placed a photograph of her to pay my respects: http://twitpic.com/dsq4bn

  24. This heatwave is starting to take it's toll. Four straight days of 40 degree temperatures (104F) with little to no relief in sight.

    1. Ashton

      Ashton

      Take your pick, we up here in the USA are having cold-snaps WAY below normal (though only for a few days at a time)

  25. Although it's around 37 degrees outside right now, it feels like a 40 degree day: http://twitpic.com/bw51lo This heatwave is really draining me.
